So everyone says this one sucks shit. They're right. It's agonizing on pretty much every level. I save-stated my way through this after the first half of the game and feel no regret.

BUT YOU KNOW this still got me thinking because I have simply not played anything that sucked in this specific way in quite some time. It reminds me of the kind of stuff I would build in Klik 'n' Play et al back in the day. Requires absurd memorization of arbitrary moves. Takes advantage of quirks of the game system, like screen transitions, to screw you over. Does not feel like it was made for anyone outside of the level designer.

This gives it a certain charm. Even though I never played it as a kid, there's a nostalgia here that has nothing to do with the game itself. It recalls a time of my life when I would play flash games online that also sucked shit but generally ran at a better frame rate.

Anyway I don't think I saw any one-star reviews so I'm giving it that. Half a star is reasonable though I just like adding some variety.
